Who Knew?? It's the Blow-Dryer!
Been using whatever blow dryer that didn't break the bank, on my shoulder-length thick hair. Years & years of drying experience here. I always thought the curling iron or shampoo made all the difference. But reading the reviews on the Babyliss pro gave me pause.
I'd just spent $50 on a nice John Frieda the girl at Ulta said was good. Tried it out and it's the same ole thing. It's just a blow-dryer. Right?? No better than my old con-air. But I decided to see if there was any way the air would blow Better out from the highly rated Babyliss and I ordered it.
Skeptical much?? Oh my, yes.
I have some natural wave to my thick hair and the stylist somehow coaxes all this amazing curl out of it--she says its in the drying. So my new Babyliss arrived.
Wash. Condition. Dry a little. Mousse a little. Dry and scrunch.
Hmmm. Hair looks great. "Seemed..." To dry faster than usual. Nah.
Next try--same thing. Great hair. Fast dry.
My skepticism is fading fast. By the time a few weeks went by, I'm telling my husband that "Not all hot air is created equal!"
5 stars for a blow dryer. Craziness. And I didn't try the little nozzle thing at all. I may buy the separate diffuser but right now....I just love this lightweight-easy to use, dryer.
